Wii U Account Swap (v2.0.4)

Changelog

• An oversight was addressed when moving account.dat backups between users outside of Wii U Account Swap, which if done, could lead to broken users and potentially console bricks. A "brick block" was added which ensures the persistent IDs between a backup and the current user match, and if they do not, it will prompt an error instead of accepting it.
  • Please remember these are system files, so show caution with the backups.

Wii U Account Swap (v2.0.3)

Changelog

• You can now view the username of the currently attached Network ID on the start screen, next to the current user's name. This was a popular request, and should be useful if you have multiple users with the same Mii names.
  • If you are logged on to a local user while using Wii U Account Swap, this field will display n/a.
• Instead of soft-rebooting the console after performing an unlink or swap, the console will now do a full reboot. This ensures that all changes are properly and swiftly applied, and will fix any lingering side effects that just flushing the cache didn't fix.

Wii U Account Swap (v2.0.2)

Changelog

• Some improvements to errors and error messages have been added.
  • Some error messages are now more specific, clarifying what exactly needs to be done to fix them.
  • More errors are checked for, which should further ensure that files are read and written to correctly.
• A bug that was introduced in v2.0.1 has been fixed where you couldn't backup an account if a backup already existed.
• Issues that were caused by how sub-screens were drawn have now been addressed. (Thank you, @NicoAICP!)

Wii U Account Swap (v2.0.1)

Changelog

• All instances of "switching" have now been changed to "swapping" in order to fit the branding of the tool.
• A bug was fixed where after an unlink or swap, the changes might not be fully saved. (Thank you, @GaryOderNichts and @Lazr1026!)
• Some behind-the-scenes refactoring took place that shouldn't be noticeable to the user, but does make the code more efficient.
  • Drawing text is now much more efficient with the introduction of font caches, and may be made even more efficient in the future. (Thank you for the idea, @GaryOderNichts!)
  • Drawing screens (such as the start screen) is more efficient as well. (Thank you, @NicoAICP!)

Wii U Account Swap (v2.0.0)

Changelog

• A completely new user interface (designed using SDL2 instead of OSScreen) was added, inspired by the one seen in tools like WiiUIdent and DRXUtil. (Thank you, @GaryOderNichts!)
  • You now pick an option from a scrolling list, as opposed to picking an option through an assigned button.
  • An icon was added that shows if the Inkay configuration was found on your SD Card. This should serve as a good indicator whether or not Wii U Account Swap will automatically update it.
  • Logs are no longer visible to the user and have been replaced with simple success/error screens. This should make processes run slightly faster.
  • The overall presentation of the tool has been greatly improved, with more colors and icons.
• More controllers are now supported in the user interface. These include the Wii Remote, Wii Classic Controller, Wii Classic Controller Pro, and the Wii U Pro Controller.
• A grammatical error which appeared on backup completion has been fixed. (Thank you, @GarnetSunset!)
• A bug was fixed during the unlinking process, where rather than replacing values with their default counterparts, they were appended to the system account.dat.
  • This bug would not have been noticeable to the user because of the way the system seems to read the account.dat file, however it was still unintended behavior with possible side effects. If any values that should not be there are detected from the v1.0.0 release, they will be wiped on the next unlink starting with this version.
• A secret was added if you press a certain button on the Wii U GamePad. If you find it, maybe check out my website for all my works?
